Exam DP-100 topic 2 question 47 discussion

HOTSPOT -
You are preparing to build a deep learning convolutional neural network model for image classification. You create a script to train the model using CUDA devices.
You must submit an experiment that runs this script in the Azure Machine Learning workspace.
The following compute resources are available:
✑ a Microsoft Surface device on which Microsoft Office has been installed. Corporate IT policies prevent the installation of additional software
✑ a Compute Instance named ds-workstation in the workspace with 2 CPUs and 8 GB of memory
✑ an Azure Machine Learning compute target named cpu-cluster with eight CPU-based nodes
✑ an Azure Machine Learning compute target named gpu-cluster with four CPU and GPU-based nodes
You need to specify the compute resources to be used for running the code to submit the experiment, and for running the script in order to minimize model training time.
Which resources should the data scientist use? To answer, select the appropriate options in the answer area.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:

Suggested Answer:
Box 1: the ds-workstation compute instance
A workstation notebook instance is good enough to run experiments.
Box 2: the gpu-cluster compute target
Just as GPUs revolutionized deep learning through unprecedented training and inferencing performance, RAPIDS enables traditional machine learning practitioners to unlock game-changing performance with GPUs. With RAPIDS on Azure Machine Learning service, users can accelerate the entire machine learning pipeline, including data processing, training and inferencing, with GPUs from the NC_v3, NC_v2, ND or ND_v2 families. Users can unlock performance gains of more than 20X (with 4 GPUs), slashing training times from hours to minutes and dramatically reducing time-to-insight.
